United States Cruise Past Peru in Post-World Cup Friendly

The United States men's national soccer team opened its post-World Cup schedule with a victory over Peru in an exhibition match held in Orlando, Florida.

The friendly represented the American squad's first fixture since this year's World Cup, giving the coaching staff a chance to look at new faces outside of major tournament pressure.

Two teenagers scored for the United States, each finding the net in his first appearance for the senior national team. The performances marked notable debuts as the program looks toward its next cycle of matches.

The result extends an active period of experimentation for the U.S. team as it builds toward future international fixtures following the World Cup.
